Description

Jim Taranto works tirelessly for his buyer and seller clients. After years of buying and selling real estate, his passion became his career in 2004 when he moved into real estate full time. The following year he became a broker and began working with and training other agents. His experience in the local market and his continued hunger to stay on the cutting edge of technology gives his clients maximum exposure to everything available in the ever evolving world of buying or selling a home. Jim is a graduate from the Bob Hogue School of Real Estate, the prestigious National Association of Expert Advisors (NAEA) and has traveled the Country working closely with international marketing guru and bestselling author Jay Abraham.
Jim is a “Certified Home Staging” design expert. This ensures his listings are set for the market in a manner that will bring top dollar in the shortest period of time. Jim and his design team carry an inventory of furniture and decorative items to beautify his listings at no additional cost to his seller clients. Many options are made available that other agents don't offer such as pre-inspections, Home Warranties, plus professional appraisals and photography when appropriate.
In order to assure his clients receive continued service second to none, Jim merged his Home Selling Team with Dale Sorensen Real Estate (DSRE). This merge positioned Jim’s team as a market leader by giving them a comprehensive system for maximizing listing exposure both locally and internationally.
Jim is committed to always putting the client first. His concern is not just to get the transaction done, but to build a lifetime relationship as someone you would gladly recommend to friends and family. Honesty, market knowledge, professionalism and always “giving back” are the trademarks of Jim Taranto and his Home Selling Team.
In this market, you need a full time, fully trained agent in your corner. You have found one here.

Testimonials

To Whom It May Concern: Jim is our agent now in purchasing a home and also our Agent on the recent sale of our home located at 2374 Golf Vista Blvd., Rockledge, Fla. We decided to sell our home last year before we came back to New York and asked Jim to undentake to sell it while we went back home to New York. Jim worked very hard to find a purchaser and when he did, he got us in contract immediately. He took care of every detail expeditiously, took every one our numerous telephone calls, handled all the problems that come along with people in contract and did this always so plesantly and always with a smile. He took care of every problem and even fixed a dry rot area of the house himself, in order for the inspection to pass. We closed on this house recently and when we came to Florida to prepare to close; packing, cleaning the place up, etc. Jim took us out every day, all day and then went back to the office to find the house we needed. We would find numerous listings ourselves, call Jim with all of them and he immediately set up the appointments and would take us out again for hours. We are in contract on the house he found for us now and hope to close at the end of November. During the move from our house on Golf Vista, the people came to inspect and wanted "everything" out of the garage, etc. It was exhausting, but Jim came over, rolled up his sleeves and started working with us. He smiled through this whole mess, while I cried. We cannot say enough about Jim Taranto; he is honest, loyal, so hard-working, always pleasant and makes the task of buying and selling a pleasant experience, instead of the stressful experience it could be. We are now back in New York, while we leave all the issues of contract, inspections, etc. again with Jim and again he is taking care of the problems that arise for us. We were blessed to have met Jim and we have, and will continue to recommend Jim to anyone.
Sincerely,
Barbara

Jim was exceptional. He worked with us through the long process of buying a short sale. It is our dream home and the kids love the pool. I will strongly recommend Jim to family and friends, he is very professional and knowledgeable and I will keep in touch with him even now that we have closed.

Jim helped me and my fiance find a home to start our family. We are set to be married in a few months and knew we had to make good choices to get started on the right foot. We bought our dream home with plenty of room to grow and he negotiated us a great deal. We always recommend Jim to our family and friends.
